The Family Credit Union is proud to announce the launch of its Paw It Forward promotion, a community-driven initiative to support local animal shelters through auto loan funding. The campaign was inspired by and kicked off with a successful pet adoption event hosted at King’s Harvest Pet Rescue of Davenport on August 1st and 2nd, 2025.
As part of the adoption weekend, the Family Credit Union donated $1,500 to King’s Harvest Pet Rescue of Davenport, an amount that was matched by King’s Harvest, resulting in a total contribution of $3,000. The funds went directly to support the care, housing, and rehoming of animals in need.
Building on the success of the adoption event, the Paw It Forward promotion will run throughout August and September 2025. During this time, The Family Credit Union will donate $25 for every auto loan funded at any of its 10 branches. This initiative will stay truly local with each donation going directly to the animal shelter closest to the branch where the loan is processed.
With branches across the region, the promotion is expected to benefit six to seven shelters, including King’s Harvest and other hometown pet rescues across local communities in Iowa and Western Illinois.
“This promotion allows us to give back in a very tangible way,” said the Family Credit Union Marketing Coordinator, Bre Bicksler. “When our members finance a vehicle with us, they’re also helping provide food, shelter, and care to animals in their own neighborhood.”
Whether you’re looking to adopt a pet, support local shelters, or finance your next car, The Family Credit Union is inviting the community to join them in making a difference, by pawing it forward.
